Prevent an apocalypse...Check this!

We have seen a couple of engines destroyed due to the oil pump pickup getting clogged with sludge and starving the engine of oil.
The interesting thing is in each case the low oil pressure light was inoperative so the light would not go on when the oil pressure dropped in the engine.
Here is how to check yours:
Turn your key on until the warning lights light up(do not start the car} Check to see if the little oil symbol is lighted, if not get it fixed. That is it, simple and effective.
PS CHANGE YOUR OIL, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT. the engine I saw today had 60k miles on it. It was full of sludge and it was junk(used engine $2100 our cost so maybe $3500 installed)
